That's from a year ago and near my city. The city did everything they could for these people and the homeless really refused to be reasonable. I can't remember all the details but the city wanted them to move a few blocks away. They slashed the tents because they kept setting up their tents in really a dangerous area, right under the off ramp to one of the interstate exits. I also believe it is in a high crime rate area and the homeless were smoking and lighting fires near these very flamable tents. I think they ended up giving them new flame resistant tents if they moved to the alternate location. Also, when I say the homeless people were unreasonable, they were dead set on being homeless and didn't care. They literally called it tent city and had a mayor and other elected officials for their tent city. Many programs were put into place to help thouse who were serious if they wanted to get off the streets and return to society but hardly any took advantage of the programs. Basically, they could be moved into low rent housing with the first 3-4 months rent and bill free and they would get job assistance. These programs were not just being run by the city but through churches and charity. So although I'm not sure I would slash a homeless person's tent, it's not accurate to judge what all had gone on leading up to that video and what followed.
